Happy for No Reason: 7 Steps to Being Happy from the Inside Out

By Marci Shimoff

Marci Shimoff, curious about what determined happiness in people, went in search of 100 people, not an easy task as it turns out.

What she discovered may come as no surprise. Happy before something really good happens, happy after. Happy before something really awful happens, happy after (after time to recover).

So if happiness truly is an “inside job” then how can we shift our “happiness quotient”. Now there’s a question worth asking and though it’s my idea that the answer is a unique and individual answer, Marci’s book may get you thinking about what can help you shift your own current happiness status quo.
